Hey all! So it's my first plant and I'm wondering if I should start flushing with plain water. Also some of the leaves are yellowing and are now taking on a purple hue??? Is it nute burn or just natural yellowing towards the end of the life cycle? The strain is Hindu Kush from marijuana-seeds.nl. Here's some info on the plant:
Soil: FFOF
Veg time: 3.5 weeks
Base nutrient: Advanced Nutrients Sensi Bloom A&B (Last feeding was at 2.25 tsp/gallon)
Additives: FF Big Bloom (1 tbsp/gal), Molasses (1-2 tbsp/gal), FF Beastie Bloomz (1/2 - 1/4 tsp/gal)
After a week of the Beastie Bloomz I switched to FF Cha Ching (1/2 - 1/4 tsp/gal) and have been doing it for a week (so two feedings)
Light: 600W HPS
4x4x7 Tent
Temps: 71-85

Does this look good at all lol? It's my first grow so I'm kinda learning things as I go. What's up with the Purple? Comments on my nutrient line up?

It looks to me that your more than 4 weeks in.I would say you are 6 weeks in (42 days) and they look to need about 2-3 weeks.I would flush the last 2 weeks.Dont get impatient.A week can matter with potency.

Dont flush yet, wait at least another week before you consider it, Feed it more water and nutes.
Thanks kronic! Do you think the yellowing and purple is caused from nute burn or just natural yellowing as the plant dies?

Beautiful buds. good thing i'm switching from cfl to hps
I know what ya mean bro! When I went from cfls to hps I saw the biggest jump in growth.

Purple can be cause of cold temperatures, Im not sure what else causes it. you'd have to do a little research on google. From what I take in a book I have hear. Purple and dark colors mostly represent To much nutrient(which I dont know) so maybe slow it down on the nutes, mild nutes until you think your ready for some flushing. If this is 8 week strain than some yellowing by now is normal as it goes on it will get more and more, especially with the flush.

Everything looks on track man.

Looks natural to me, although I could be mistaken. It would make sense that the tips of the leaves are getting slightly discolored because the plant is diverting so many of the nutrients it takes in to the buds, and the fans just have to deal with it haha

Does anyone on here use the Advanced Nutrients Sensi Bloom? If so what are you putting in per gallon. I can't tell if 2.25 tsp is too much when combined with the Cha Ching? Anyone use the FF Beastie Bloomz and Cha Ching without also using the FF main nutrient line?

I use Sensi Bloom. I use 1.75tsp/g for vegging. I plan on being a tad more aggressive, like 2.0 or 2.25 during flowering.

So marijuana-seeds.nl is legit? I was gonna order from them but I heard some reports of ppl not getting their seeds or not getting them for months. I guess they might have got caught in customs or something who knows. I was just about to order from nirvana-shop.com but the checkout seems to be down for the past 2 days. Dunno why.

Idk about everyone else but I got mine in like a week or so. It was also very hidden in the package. As far as the seeds go I ordered 5 Hindu kush and got 5 Afghanis for free. I had a 100% germ rate with 3 of each strain. They weren't fem seeds so one of the hindus was male and 2 of the afghanis. All three of the females are in late flowering right now. One of the hindus started turning purple all over and it looks amazing and has this real hashy resin smell with hint of something sweet. It has really dense buds. but the other one is a real light green plant with smaller not so dense buds... but it smells so sweet!!! Like real fruity or like pez. And the Afghani is smaller but it makes up with that in bud. Even though it's a foot shorter than my tallest plant it I still think it has at least twice the weight of bud on it. And my tallest plant has a fair amount. All that being said, I just bought from Attitude and it was also a good experience and I think the product is better.
